Mr. Deeds Goes to Chicago

Maddog posted on the completion of a trade.

Today the Craig Monroe deal was completed as the Minnesota Twins sent 25-year old outfielder Doug Deeds to the Cubs.

Aside from a now obscure Gary Cooper reference which is now an Adam Sandler reference, this is pretty meaningless. So, who plays a better 'Babe', Winona Ryder or Jean Arthur?

Deeds struggled in AAA last year (was he hurt? only 86 games). Maddog suspects he'll go to AA, but I think he'll end up in Iowa. Where he'll stay. We have enough young left-handed outfielders.
